CGA754 Sing We Now of Christmas

Flexible voicing characterizes this piece. Some of the performance possibilities are as follows: (1) as written, with combined children's SAB and SATB choirs, (2) two youth or adult groups of singers, with one or both singing the unison choir part, (3) one SATB choir, with sopranos and altos singing the unison choir part. The piece provides an excellent opportunity for combining choirs for a festive Christmas worship service. It works especially well as a processional.
